What is Tricking?
Tricking is a freestyle discipline that involves a combination of flips and twists from gymnastics, as well as moves and kicks from capoeira, taekwondo and wushu. It aims to achieve an aesthetic display of different combinations of “tricks”.
Tricking can be performed by everyone and every level. If you are a performer, or you are into dancing or martial arts, this is probably what you are looking for to give a boost to your performance. if you already do Gymnastics, Tricking is a new challenge and a new way to explore new flips, new axes, new variations.
